This is my second year teach second grade. I previously taught third grade at Troy Hofer since the building opened in 2008. I am passionate about teaching and cannot wait to get to know your children better and to work towards helping them grow into the best possible versions of themselves.
Mr. Garretson and I have been married for 13 years. We live in Yorkville with our 3 children. Outside of the classroom I spend my time in the kitchen cooking up healthy food for my family, attempting to maintain a vegetable garden during the warmer months, and occasionally running. My favorite time spent with my family includes reading, swimming, hiking, and trips to some of our favorite places, including the beach, the zoo, and the arboretum.
My favorite children's books to read with my own family include The Mercy Watson Series (you're welcome for already hooking your child on them, they are hilarious!), Curious George, Rosie Revere Engineer, Peek-A-Who, Twenty Big Trucks, and American Girl Series.
